Like chili somehow isn't a stew.

You add beans to chili because beans are cheaper than meat and that's how you get more chili out of your meat than you would with only meat.

Also, corn is an acceptable variant in chili, because it's delicious.

The only bean form I can't stand is baked beans which are almost always in a sauce that is way, way too sweet.

Otherwise I agree 100%.

In general, yes, but including them in chili is a slippery slope to people adding bullshit like corn and tomatoes.

Counterpoint, chili without beans, corn, tomato, or any other vegetables is just a poorly made gravy. Like what is in this garbage chili that you purists laud over other, better chili. Is it just meat, juice, spice, onion?

Chili rules are made to be broken imo.

Chili has rules but they have only lead to strife with no improvement in quality. It is the perfect example of why pizza fascism must never be allowed to take hold.

Problem is that while there chili rules, there have never been chili consequences to breaking them.

Real Texas chili which is basically just meat, chilis, spices and onion is One of the best foods out there. Ground meat chili with beans can also be good, but once you start adding a bunch of random stuff the dish loses focus and becomes a spicy beef stew.

Chili only has rules if you're entering it into a competition, otherwise do whatever you want.

Also a stromboli has sauce inside of it and a calzone doesn't so that's the difference probably but who knows, maybe no one will ever solve the mystery of the difference between strombolis and calzones

Even "true" chili is just a stew. There's nothing special about it.

Like skinny king pimp says the only reason you should care what you put in your chili is if you are entering a competition for a specific type of chili. If you bring beans to a texas chili competition obviously you'll lose, but it will still be delicious and only a rabid anti-bean activist would get upset if you called it chili.

Also how can a stromboli and a calzone possibly be confused? Strombolis are rolled up things, calzones are basically just a pizza folded in half.

Stromboli is topped when flat and rolled up into a large spiral, like a big pizza roulade,

Calzone is a large stuffed moon or half-moon full of toppings, like a big pizza dumpling.

Sometimes calzone is fried, this is heresy and breaks all pizza rules. Because stromboli and calzone are both pizza.

Sure, chili is a specific kind of stew. So when you say "chili", everyone should have a good idea what you are talking about without having to typo out each ingredient. If food terms can mean anything anyone wants, then communication (and ordering off of a menu, which is why I care) becomes more difficult and dumb.

"hey can you tell me what style of chili y'all serve?"

it's very easy, also usually it says something like 'white chili' or lists ingredients on the menu. nobody is trying to pass off like beef and barley stew as chili, friend, don't worry. you're not going to order chili and be served carbonnade or some poo poo. it's fine.

edit: carbonnade actually totally fits in anti-food porn. looks like dog food, tastes super good when made well.

The secret is that 'chili' refers to the general flavoring of the stew & general format of "beef plus a couple extra things", which is why normal people can recognize both bean and beanless forms as chili. Or ground beef vs chunks of beef. Or any of the thousands of other of chili variations.

And the fact that chili recipes are dependant on region & family traditions is why there's so much variation, and also why nobody will ever agree on the one true chili. Because there isn't one.
